Did you actually read it? I mean, as in Japanese text? Cause in the summary I linked ^ it doesn't look HALF as bad as you are describing. No sarcasm and no offense here, it is just we are still looking for a guy who actually SAW the stupid novel, to my knowledge.

Also, for the record, on the subject of what's canon and not, opinions never matter. Official statements do. It is your choice what you decide to call canon for yourself; but for the wiki, we follow the official statement here. Even if it is total BS, which in this case I don't think it is. I actually would like to read DF myself someday. It looks fun.
